Do you want to enjoy beautiful flowers in your garden or on your balcony in spring? This is the perfect time to plant flower bulbs. Many flower bulbs need the winter frost to bloom in the spring.
Why plant flower bulbs now? Before it gets really cold, the bulbs must have strong roots. Then they will survive the winter and they will bloom more beautiful and longer.
Tips for planting flower bulbs
– How deep should you plant flower bulbs? A good guideline is that the layer of soil above the sphere should be 2 to 3 times as thick as the sphere is. Plant a bulb 5 centimeters high, so 10 to 15 centimeters deep.
– Plant flower bulbs with the 'nose' up.
– Make sure you keep enough distance between the bulbs. It is best to keep about 15 centimeters between daffodils. Crocuses have a planting distance of 2.5 centimeters. So be informed before planting your flowers.
– You can also plant flower bulbs in a pot. Make sure that water can drain well. For example, drill small holes at the bottom of the pot and place the soil on a layer of potsherds or clay granules.
